Fig. 9

Fragmentation of CST axons. A–C) At 3 days after blast, YFP+ axonal bulbs in the dCST are less abundant and typically smaller than at 2 days. Some YFP+ axonal bulbs are labeled for SBDP150 (arrows in B). Other YFP+ bulbs are RMO14+ (arrows in C). Panel A shows a cluster of YFP+ axonal bulbs located at the T6–7 level; B and C show adjacent sections of a cluster at the T5–6 level. These images are shown at the same magnification as those in Fig. 4B–E, allowing direct comparisons of YFP+ bulb sizes. D, E) At longer times after blast, YFP+ axons in the dCST appear to be fragmenting. The region shown in D is near T5; the region shown in E is near T7. RMO14+ profiles visible at 5 days post-blast (panel D) are generally smaller than at earlier post-blast times (compare with panel C and Fig. 4E). Scale bar in E = 100 μm for all panels.
